v This was "the high profile time period" spawning the maligned term, Going Postal…..
v Workplace homicides numbered 586 in 2008 alone.
A few years ago, I recall sitting in my agency's cafeteria to participate in a three hour workplace violence presentation. Prior to my arrival in year 2000, our small state agency, had suffered much more than most. Just prior to my career as a state employee, other employees were subjected to a long term real life Peyton Place scenario that is still whispered about today. It undermined the agency's operation and mission, sworn to serve the disabled and emotionally held people hostage.
Since that time, other unsavory elements have visited our institution in the form of predatory behavior and domestic violence incidents among others.
Our agency was bruised and battered….. Hence, the need for a full time security guard. However, the real reason for this workplace violence presentation, (besides government protocol) was an incident that rocked our state, etched in the minds of Connecticut residents; forever known as "the Lottery shootings" which occurred in March, 1998.
At the time, this blogger was 2,582 miles away in Phoenix, Arizona pursuing an alternate career and residence. Those who bore witness to this event, encountered a "disgruntled accountant", age 35, named Matthew Beck who bitterly complained in writing that the Connecticut State Lottery Corporation, "created an environment that does not hold any long term growth or promotional opportunities." Government, being government, is steeped in bureaucracy. This man was politely told by an HR official that once his initial grievance was settled, "I will be happy to meet with you to answer any additional questions." Beck felt cheated that his job involving computer skills was re-classified, and denied an upgrade that every other accountant received.
Unfortunately, in his warped perception of reality, he chose not to wait…. but to return to work eight days early from his stress-related leave of absence and fatally shoot four of his bosses, prior to ending his own life. Beck's boss, lottery president, Otho "Ott" Brown reportedly was chased by Beck, who led the gunman away from other employees, saving their lives.
Matthew Beck had no previous such episodes and had received positive work reviews. However, a psychiatric history of suicide attempts was in his past.
The human toll and emotional scars are immeasurable….
Fast forward to August 2010 in Manchester, Connecticut, in which another disgruntled employee of Hartford Distributors went on a deadly rampage killing nine people. Racism was the charge, ending in a cowardly suicide once again… This guy was given a break and promoted to a truck driver and eventually got caught twice on video stealing cases of beer.
According to union officials, Thornton had poor work habits and a lack of understanding that it takes years to rise through the ranks as a senior driver in a union shop. His employer made the fatal mistake of allowing him to walk free among his employees on the day he was fired.
A recently completed investigation says that a forensic examination of perpetrator Omar Thornton's cell phone revealed no evidence of racism. He never filed a formal grievance. Instead he formulated a plan that spelled justice to him.
Question by this author… What does it mean to be a third less dead???
The Center for Disease Control disagrees and states that previous rates in the 1980s were roughly equal.
The National Institute of Occupational Safety & Health reported in 2008 that 30 workplace occurrences included multiple deaths and that 12% the perpetrator was a co-worker or former co-worker.
Fred Blosser of NIOSH reports that the risk factors most likely to result in workplace homicide include: handling money, working late at night, risk of robbery and working alone.
The USPS employed more than 750,000 part-time and full time workers in the year 2000 and hired 40,000 workers a year. Is it a stretch to say that "going postal" no longer lives up to its reputation?
A standard in the Human Resources industry for Workplace Violence presentations includes the showing or partial showing of a training film entitled "Murder 9 to 5: Violence in the Workplace, a 1994 HBO Production.
This author was recently told by a Department of Administrative Services official that the three day training provided to HR officials for the State of Connecticut after the lottery shooting, was ordered to "be condensed to three hours" for state employees. Thus, only a 10 minute showing of excerpts of this film was available for our viewing.
1) The 1986 story of postal worker and killer Patrick Sherrill "Crazy Pat" who committed homicide on 14 workers in Edmond, Oklahoma prior to his suicide. Dr. Park Diez, a forensic psychiatrist and FBI consultant also appeared in the film. Much has been written about this event.
2) August 10, 1989, Escondido California mailman, John Merlin Taylor shot his wife to death, then drove to a nearby post office in Escondido and opened fire on fellow employees, killing two and wounding a third before putting the gun to his head and shooting himself. U.S. Postal Service spokesman Ken Boyd said Taylor had been a letter carrier for 25 years and was nearing retirement.
The rampage, which began at 7:30 a.m. on East Valley Parkway on the eastern edge of the northern San Diego County city, left postal workers scrambling for safety. When the gunfire subsided, survivors were seen exchanging hugs and crying quietly.
"He fired well over a dozen rounds, and there are expended cases all over the floor there," Escondido Police Lt. Earl Callander said.
"There is also a box of about 100 rounds that apparently was going to be used for re-loading.
Police said they knew of no motive for the shootings and believed that the victims were shot randomly, but co-workers said Taylor had succumbed to increasing pressure at work.
3) Ridgeway, New Jersey, 1991 was the date and location of the next in a series of postal homicides by clerk Joseph Harris.
Writing a two page note, he referred to the Edmond, Oklahoma deaths and explained his own unfair treatment by the Postal Service. Carol Ott, a supervisor at the Ridgewood, New Jersey post office. A personality conflict existed….
She ordered him to take a "fitness for duty" psychological exam with a doctor chosen and paid by the Postal Service. Insulted, he refused to cooperate with the request and Ms. Ott instituted proceedings that resulted in Harris' dismissal in April 1990.Armed with guns, grenades, homemade bombs, and a samurai sword, he booby trapped the front door of his apartment and drove to the suburban home of Ms. Ott. After forcing entry, swinging his sword in a great arc, he deeply slashed her left shoulder and continued to thrust as she staggered backwards. After killing her, he crept down the stairs and shot her live-in boyfriend, Cornelius Kasten, Jr. behind the right ear as he sat watching television in the basement.
October 10th, 2 am, Harris entered the rear of the Ridgewood post office where he shot and killed two mail handlers, Joseph Vander Pauw and Donald Mc Naught. Barricading himself in the basement, he shot at truck driver Marcello Collado who had become suspicious when he arrived at the back dock and found nobody to help him unload his truck.
Collado escaped unscathed and drove to the nearest police station.
Joseph Harris was subsequently convicted of first degree murder and sentenced to death. He died on death row in 1996.
4) Thomas McIlvan, Royal Oak , Michigan, November 14, 1991.
A former postal clerk, 31, furious that he had been dismissed from his job, for "getting into altercations with postal customers on his route," walked into a regional postal center opened fire with a sawed-off .22-caliber rifle, killing three workers and wounding six, before fatally wounding himself.
Three other workers were injured while trying to escape by jumping out windows of the two-story building during the shooting spree, which the police estimated lasted five or six minutes.
A mere four hours later…. fired postal employee Mark Richard Hilburn killed his mother and her dog. And then… he proceeded to the Dana Point post office and fatally shot letter carrier Charles Barbagallo and injured clerk Peter Gates. Hilburn continued his mass murdering rampage wounding three others prior to being captured 36 hours later.
After a neighbor accused Hartford postal worker, Edward Premo, 40 of vandalizing her car, police showed up to investigate. Premo was waiting in his yard and opened fire with two handguns. Officers returned fire. The wounded perpetrator continued to fire on backup officers. Premo was apprehended. His trailer contained several homemade explosives. No fatalities occurred.
Postal clerk, Bruce Clark, with 22 years of service, apparently punched his postal supervisor, James Whooper III in the back of the head without provocation. Clark soon returned to the room with a brown paper bag containing a .38 caliber revolver and instantly pulled the trigger. Other workers were able to subdue Clark until his arrest by police.
In the mid -1990's Jennifer Sanmarco worked as a police dispatcher prior to becoming a postal employee. At that time, she was the recipient of a standard background check and psychological evaluation. After several months as a dispatcher, she left the job due to the high stress conditions (which is not unusual for such positions). Jennifer eventually pursued an entry level clerk job at the mail processing plant. However, in 2003, she had to be removed by police for "acting strangely" and was put on a psychological disability for her own protection.
On January 30, 2006, newspaper accounts reveal that Ms. Sanmarco shot and killed her one time neighbor and then proceeded to go to her former workplace.
US Postal Inspector Randy DeGarperin reported that Sanmarco apparently entered the massive facility by following others into the gate. She began her rampage by shooting two employees in the parking lot, and forced her way into the building with someone else's key card. The shooter used a semi automatic pistol, shooting all in the head. Subsequently, she also fatally shot herself.
Although a true motive was unclear, writings recovered in her home by the Santa Barbara Sheriff's office indicated that she thought she was the target of a conspiracy centered at the Goleta postal facility.
"These incidents don't occur because someone just snaps", stated workplace violence Federal government expert and psychologist, Mary Tyler. She also expressed surprise that the shooter was a woman.
Police and psychologists have offered theories as to her motive.
Paranoia and a history of mental illness, severe depression, anger and frustration and suicidal ideation are common.
There was no evidence she was mad at her boss and no supervisors were killed.
The Case of Jenifer Sanmarco remains a mystery….
Indeed….. and complacency breeds a false sense of security and the potential for more violence.
This blogger thinks that a book needs to be written on this topic….

Christina Aguilera Just Did 'Carpool Karaoke' & It Featured Melissa McCarthy Rapping
By Dustin Nelson Published On 04/23/2018

By Dustin Nelson @dlukenelson Published On 04/23/2018
James Corden's The Late Late Show shuffled its way into primetime Monday night for its "The Late Late Show Carpool Karaoke Primetime Special." As much as that sounds like it was going to be late night's version of a clip show, Corden had plenty of new musical segments in the show.
The feature piece was a brand new "Carpool Karaoke" featuring Christina Aguilera. She started by trying to explain the slight rasp she can work up, which Corden couldn't replicate while signing "Fighter." He wasn't all that close to replicating it. He suggested he sounds like Fozzy Bear while attempting it, but it might be slightly closer to Grover.
The highlight wasn't the rasp, but a surprise appearance from Melissa McCarthy. She appears from nowhere to do Redman's verse in "Dirrty."
In addition to the new "Carpool Karaoke," Corden and Reggie Watts opened the show with a Bruno Mars-inspired song about moving to Primetime. Then they trotted out a new "Crosswalk the Musical," a segment where Corden and some actors recreate a musical on an actual sidewalk in front of Los Angeles traffic. This time, Corden's players performed "The Sound of Music" in a sidewalk with appearances from Anna Faris, Kunal Nayyar, Young Sheldon's Iain Armitage, and Allison Janney, who plays Maria much to Corden's chagrin.

On July 26-29, the County issued $139.5 million of it's 2010 General Obligation Public Improvement and Refunding Bonds. Of this, $73.415 million was issued for new projects at an overall interest rate of 2.80 percent, the lowest on record for the County. The remaining $66.13 million was issued to refund previously issued bonds for an overall savings of over $3 million over the life of the bond issue, and savings of over $400,000 in Fiscal Year 2011.
This year's bond sale was unique in that the County utilized both traditional tax-exempt bonds, as well as the new Build America Bonds (BABS) that have become a popular and beneficial form of financing for state and local governments. BABs, unlike tax exempt bonds, are taxable and subject to both state of federal taxation. The County instead receives a 35% subsidy on these bonds, providing lower overall interest rates when compared to tax-exempt bonds. By utilizing a mix of both forms of financing, the County ultimately saved taxpayer dollars by reducing our interest costs.
To access market data related to this bond issuance, please visit the EMMA website.
June 15, 2010 – the County Board authorized the issuance of up to $223.5 million of General Obligation Public Improvement and Refunding Bonds in fiscal year 2011. Of this, $73.4 million will be new money bonds, while up to $150 million is authorized for the refunding of existing debt. Pursuant to the County's debt management policies, any bond refunding will have a minimum aggregate present value savings of 3% of the refunded bond principal amount. The County will continue to actively monitor the municipal markets throughout FY 2011 and will evaluate any refinancing opportunities that may develop.

Q: group values in intervals I have a pandas series containing zeros and ones:
df1 = pd.Series([ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0])
df1
Out[3]:
0         0
1         0
2         0
3         0
4         0
5         1
6         1
7         1
8         0
9         0
10        0

I would like to create a dataframe df2 that contains the start and the end of intervals with the same value, together with the value associated... df2 in this case should be...
df2
Out[5]:
   Start     End  Value
0      0  4         0
1      5  7         1
2      8  10        0

My attempt was:
from operator import itemgetter
from itertools import groupby

a=[next(group) for key, group in groupby(enumerate(df1), key=itemgetter(1))]
df2 = pd.DataFrame(a,columns=['Start','Value'])

but I don't know how to get the 'End' indeces

A: You could use the pd.Series.diff() method so as to identify the starting indexes:
df2 = pd.DataFrame()
df2['Start'] = df1[df1.diff().fillna(1) != 0].index

Then compute end indexes from this:
df2['End'] = [e - 1 for e in df2['Start'][1:]] + [df1.index.max()]

And finally gather the associated values :
df2['Value'] = df1[df2['Start']].values

ouput
   Start  End  Value
0      0    4      0
1      5    7      1
2      8   10      0

A: The thing you are looking for is get first and last values in a groupby

import pandas as pd

def first_last(df):
    return df.ix[[0,-1]]

df = pd.DataFrame([3]*4+[4]*4+[1]*4+[3]*3,columns=['value'])
print df
df['block'] = (df.value.shift(1) != df.value).astype(int).cumsum()
df = df.reset_index().groupby(['block','value'])['index'].agg(['first', 'last']).reset_index()
del df['block']
print df

A: You can groupby using shift and cumsum and find first and last valid index
df2 = df1.groupby((df1 != df1.shift()).cumsum()).apply(lambda x: np.ravel([x.index[0], x.index[-1], x.unique()]))
df2 = pd.DataFrame(df2.values.tolist()).rename(columns = {0: 'Start', 1: 'End',2:'Value'})

You get
    Start   End     Value
0   0       4       0
1   5       7       1
2   8       10      0

A: You can groupby by Series which is create by cumsum of shifted Series df1 by shift.
Then apply custum function and last reshape by unstack.
s = df1.ne(df1.shift()).cumsum()
df2 = df1.groupby(s).apply(lambda x: pd.Series([x.index[0], x.index[-1], x.iat[0]],
                                                index=['Start','End','Value']))
                   .unstack().reset_index(drop=True)
print (df2)
   Start  End  Value
0      0    4      0
1      5    7      1
2      8   10      0

Another solution with aggregation by agg with first and last, but there is necessary more code for handling output by desired output.
s = df1.ne(df1.shift()).cumsum()
d = {'first':'Start','last':'End'}
df2 = df1.reset_index(name='Value') \
         .groupby([s, 'Value'])['index'] \
         .agg(['first','last'])  \
         .reset_index(level=0, drop=True) \
         .reset_index() \
         .rename(columns=d) \
         .reindex_axis(['Start','End','Value'], axis=1)
print (df2)
   Start  End  Value
0      0    4      0
1      5    7      1
2      8   10      0

While accidents resulting in personal injury can be very sudden, the consequences can be extremely long-lasting. Even suffering from broken bones, torn ligaments or road rash can mean that you have to take time off from work and expend large sums of money for your care.
Recovering compensation can be difficult. Sometimes the negligent party who caused the injuries will not have the money to pay for your medical expenses or will contest any claim made. Insurance companies may deny claims made on policies or try to place the responsibility upon some other party.
Injuries can also be complex, and there sometimes is no immediate diagnosis. Brain or spinal cord injuries, for example, can be incredibly difficult to diagnose, and sometimes victims of such trauma never fully recover. Further, the long-term care for these injuries is expensive.
Our personal injury attorneys at Van Hooser & Aguirre, P.C., will fight to make certain that you obtain compensation for your injuries. Besides your immediate needs, we will also make certain that any compensation package will also consider your long-term medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, wage loss and costs for other services.
There are many ways that injuries can occur due to somebody else's negligence. When they do, you can contact our law firm for an initial consultation with one of our lawyers by calling 703-291-4390. Let our law firm help you.
We will not get paid for our personal injury services unless we recover compensation for you.

Эле́ктрум (также электр, , от  — янтарь, назван в связи с цветом) — минерал, разновидность самородного золота; представляет собой сплав серебра с золотом (Ag, Au). Содержание серебра 15-50 %. Обычно встречается в виде дендритов или жидких и ковких пластинчатых образований. Цвет от золотисто-жёлтого до серебряно-белого. Твёрдость по Моосу: 2—3; плотность 12—15 г/см³. Добывается вместе с другими разновидностями золота или изготавливается искусственно. Иногда называется «белым золотом», хотя современный термин «белое золото» обозначает другие сплавы золота.

Этимология
Слово происходит от греческого ἤλεκτρον / ḗlektron, которое само образовано от λέκτωρ / ēléktōr, «блестящий», определителя Солнца и эпитета Гипериона. В классическом греческом языке это слово почти всегда относится к янтарю, свойства которого дали начало словам электричество и электрон.

На латыни этот термин обозначает сплав, который греки чаще называли «белым золотом» (λευκὸς χρυσός / leukòs khrusós. Таким образом, Плиний Старший поясняет, что «все золото содержит серебро в различных количествах […] когда доля серебра составляет 55 %, металл называется» электрум ".

Использование

Электрум использовался с III тысячелетия до н. э. (в Древнем царстве Египта для покрытия обелисков и наверший пирамид). Первое упоминание встречается в описании экспедиции в Пунт, посланной Сахура — вторым фараоном V династии. Есть упоминание и у Плиния Старшего в его «Естественной истории» (XXIII. 80).

Из электрума были сделаны первые в истории монеты — статеры в Лидии в VII веке до н. э. Электрум был удобен для изготовления монет, поскольку он твёрже золота и потому более износостоек. Кроме того, технология очистки золота в те времена была неразвита.

Первый метод анализа электрума на содержание золота принадлежит, видимо, Архимеду (знаменитое открытие Архимедом метода измерения плотности, сделанное «в ванне». Но это является заблуждением по отношению к электруму, так как ещё одним основным компонентом для создания сплавов золота является медь). До этого курс монет из электрума определялся по соглашению.

Значение в древних текстах
Древние греки (а вначале и римляне) использовали одно и то же слово для обозначения как электрума, так и янтаря. Даже по отношению к произведениям Гомера не ясно, как следует понимать это слово.

См. также
 Илектр — древнерусское слово, обычно обозначающее янтарь, но также и электрум, а в Библии также имеет значение «божественная слава».
 Гепатизон — Черная коринфская бронза или гепатизон была особенно ценимым металлическим сплавом в классической древности, который, как полагали, состоял из меди и небольшого количества золота и серебра.

Japan Beats Scotland for Title of Best Whisky in the World
by Hannah Howard on Mar 24, 2015 in Culture
Move over, Scotland. Japanese whisky reigns supreme. The coveted title of World Whisky of the Year for 2015 goes to The Yamazaki Single Malt Sherry 2013, according to Jim Murray's Whisky Bible, which is indeed the bible of the whiskey world. It's the first time this honor has been bestowed upon Japan.
Another first in the Whisky Bible's twelve-year history: Scottish whisky was absent from the top five list. Ouch. Scottish egos are badly bruised. The Daily Mail calls the results "humiliation for Scotland."
The Yamazaki is "a single malt which no Scotch can at the moment get anywhere near," Murrays says in his guide. High praise, especially considering Murray tasted some 4,700 varieties from around the world for his 2015 bible.
What makes the spirit so phenomenal? Maybe it's the unique climate or handcrafted sherry casks from Northern Spain in which the whisky matures. Or perhaps it's the water used to craft Yamazaki, which comes from the foot of Mt. Tenno in Kyoto. Or maybe it's the pedigree and history of the Yamazaki Distillery, which has been doing its thing impeccably since 1923.
Whatever the reason, experts agree on their love for this single malt. Only 18,000 bottles of the winning whisky were produced. It'll cost you a pretty penny to enjoy this rare bottle—they go for an average of about $1500 on ebay.

Q: AWS EMR: Spark - SparkException java IOException: Failed to create local dir in /tmp/blockmgr* I have a AWS EMR cluster with Spark. I can connect to it (spark):

*

*from master node after SSHing into it

*from another AWS EMR cluster

But NOT able to connect to it:

*

*from my local machine (macOS Mojave)

*from non-emr machines like Metabase and Redash
I have read answers of this question. I have checked that folder permissions and disk space are fine on all the nodes. My assumption is I'm facing similar problem what James Wierzba is asking in the comments. However, I do not have enough reputation to add a comment there. Also, this might be a different problem considering it is specific to AWS EMR.
Connection works fine after SSHing to master node.
# SSHed to master node
$ ssh -i ~/identityfile hadoop@ec2-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com

# on master node
$ /usr/lib/spark/bin/beeline -u 'jdbc:hive2://localhost:10001/default'
# it connects fine and I can run commands, for e.g., 'show databases;'

# Beeline version 1.2.1-spark2-amzn-0 by Apache Hive

Connection to this node works fine from master node of another EMR cluster as well.
However, connection does not work from my local machine (macOS Mojave), Metabase and Redash.
My local machine:
# installed hive (for beeline)
$ brew install hive

# Beeline version 3.1.1 by Apache Hive

# connect directly
# I have checked that all ports are open for my IP

$ beeline -u 'jdbc:hive2://ec2-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com:10001/default'
# ERROR: ConnectException: Operation timed out
#
# this connection timeout probably has something to do with spark accepting only localhost connections
# I have allowed all the ports in AWS security group for my IP

# connect via port forwarding

# open a port
$ ssh -i ~/identityfile -Nf -L 10001:localhost:10001 hadoop@ec2-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com

$ beeline -u 'jdbc:hive2://localhost:10001/default'
# Failed to connect to localhost:10001
# Required field 'client_protocol' is unset!

$ beeline -u 'jdbc:hive2://localhost:10001/;transportMode=http'
# org.apache.http.ProtocolException: The server failed to respond with a valid HTTP response

I have setup Metabase and Redash in ec2.
Metabase → connect using data source Spark SQL → results in
java.sql.SQLException: org.apache.spark.SparkException: java.io.IOException: Failed to create local dir in /mnt/tmp/blockmgr*
Redash → connect using data source Hive → results in same error.

A: You need to update the inbound rules of the security group attached to Master node of EMR. You will need to add the public IP address of your network provider. You can find your public IP address on the following website :
What is my IP
For more details on how to update the inbound rules with your IP address refer following AWS documentation :
Authorizing Inbound Traffic for Your Linux Instances
You should also check the outbound rules of your own network in case you are working in a restricted network environment.
So make sure you have outbound access in your network and inbound access in your EMR's master node security group for all the ports you want to access.

February 19, 2020 / No Comments
A few weeks ago, Claire came upstairs, clearly upset. "Austin is doing a terrible job with his homework!" she exclaimed.
I was puzzled. "Claire," I said, "Austin is in third grade. He's just figuring out how to do homework."
She insisted I come and see his homework. The assignment was to write about a subject in school that he liked. "Look!" Claire said, pointing at his paper.
Austin had written about all of the subjects he didn't like instead. "This will hurt his teacher's feelings!" Claire said.
I was pretty sure Austin's teacher had thicker skin than that. She is a great teacher and Austin adores her, even if he doesn't like reading or writing. Certainly I've had my share of students who didn't like my subject, and I didn't let it worry me too much. But I appreciated that Claire was concerned about how Austin's words might impact someone else.
I talked to Austin about it and as we talked, Claire kept interrupting to add things like, "how would you feel if someone wrote things like this about mom??" Eventually, Austin erased everything and started over, conceding that he does actually like math.
I laughed with my dad about it later. Gotta love the power of an older sister.
The next few weekly writing assignments were pretty straightforward. I chuckled when Austin wrote a paragraph on his least favorite food ("Sushi is gross. It is raw fish, and raw fish should just be bait.") I enjoyed how easily he completed the math portions. But then one afternoon I came home, and before I sat down he said, "mom, I'm writing about dad dying for my homework this week."
"Okay," I said, slowly. "Do you feel okay about that?"
"Yes," he said. "The topic is, 'something that makes you sad' so that's why I picked when dad died. Here's my brainstorm." He handed me his homework.
I looked at his worksheet. It was heartbreaking.
"Something that makes me sad is when my father died," he had written. "It makes me sad because I can never see him again. He is missing out on family trips. He can't go to my basketball games."
I took a deep breath, and willed myself to keep my emotions under control. I try and take these things in stride.
"I need to write out the sentences and make sure to include details and explanations," Austin said. "Will you help me?"
"Sure, baby," I said, and we sat down to brainstorm the details of exactly what his father was missing.
We came up with a lot of ideas. Dad would have done more "special time" with him. Dad would have taken him to the toy store. Dad would have loved the water slides on the Disney cruise.
"I think the last part should be about Dad missing my basketball games," Austin said. "What other details can I add?"
I looked at him. His hair was sticking out at the sides and bits of it hung in his eyes. I swept it to the sides and combed my fingers through his hair, looking for the right words. "Dad would have loved watching you play," I said, choking a bit on the last word.
Claire was sitting across the room, and looked up. "Are you okay, mom?" she asked. Austin hadn't written anything yet, and I realized that both of them were looking intently at me.
"Talking about dad makes me a little sad," I said, "especially when I think of how he is missing things like Austin's basketball games. But it's okay to feel sad when we think about missing dad."
"I know," Claire said. Austin was quiet, and went back to writing.
As we went to bed that night, I asked Austin how he felt about the assignment, and he assured me that he wasn't too sad writing about his dad.
"Dad would have loved watching you play basketball," I said, "even more than me, I think."
Austin smiled. "He would have liked seeing me have fun," he said.
I smiled at him. "Yes, he would have loved that."
And that is how this story ends, because I am living my real life, not an animated movie. No one comes back to life. No one magically fixes the sad thing in Austin's life. No one fills the role of dad, because no matter how many people Austin has in his life, no one ever will. This story will always be sad for him.
But that's okay. It's sad that his dad died. It makes me cry when I think about all that Shawn is missing and all that Austin is missing because he doesn't have his dad here for fun trips and third-grade basketball.
Yes, it would have been easier if the assignment was about "how to ride a bike" or "my favorite candy." But I'm glad this homework dug a little deeper, because it showed me that my boy can talk about the things that make him sad. And that strikes me as one of the most important things he's learning how to do this year.

Oscars 2023: Best Actor Predictions
Colin Farrell and Austin Butler are comfortable among the Best Picture nominees, but Brendan Fraser is also a big part of the Best Actor Oscar.
We'll keep updating these predictions throughout awards season, so keep checking IndieWire for our 2023 Oscars picks. The final vote will take place between March 2 and 7, 2023. The 95th Academy Awards will air on Sunday, March 12th and will air live on ABC at 8:00 PM ET/5:00 PM PT.
Check out our initial thoughts on what to expect at the 95th Academy Awards.
State of the species
On the morning of the Oscar nominations, four expected contenders entered the field. In the Best Actor race, films nominated for Best Picture always have an advantage. Celebrated titles such as "The Banshees of Inisherin" (nine nods) and musical biopic "Elvis" (eight), starring Globe-winners Colin Farrell (comedy) and Austin Butler (drama), are preceded by the weepy Critics Choice. winner Brendan Fraser ("The Whale"), which received a second nomination for supporting actress Hong Chau and a third nomination for makeup and hair.
Darren Aronofsky's drama about a man in poor health who hopes to reconnect with his daughter was considered a hit by the adapted screenplay and picture, but fell short. Both "Banshees" and "The Whale" premiered in competition at this year's Venice Film Festival, where Farrell beat out Fraser for the Volpi Cup award. Farrell's poignant portrayal of a lovable junkie who can't accept all the changes in his provincial life is a reminder that he's one of the great actors never nominated.
While the recurring narrative surrounding Fraser continues full steam ahead, "The Whale" is a harder pill to swallow. The Academy isn't usually bothered by actors in fat suits (Gary Oldman won Best Actor in 2017 for donning one as Winston Churchill in "Darkest Hour"), but the film doesn't bring the same level of empathy to Fraser's obese character. and her eating disorder, as the actor does. Fraser hit every point in the campaign, charming as ever but still raising questions about handling a sensitive topic that affects so many people. This delicate dance may or may not be in her favor.
As for the rest of the group, "Elvis" star Austin Butler is holding strong, though the summer biopic campaign has taken a soft break as the cast and crew mourn the recent death of Lisa Marie Presley. British veteran Bill Nighy has finally received his first nomination after decades of celebrated film and theater work. Her poignant work in Oliver Hermanus' "Living" deals with legacy and gave Nighy a step up from her scene-stealing turn in "Love Actually," which saw legions of gleeful viewers every holiday season.
Jeremy Pope ("The Inspection"), Hugh Jackman ("The Son") or SAG nominee Adam Sandler ("Hustle") did not find support for fifth place. Instead, up-and-coming actor Paul Mescal, 26, received his first Oscar nomination for his performance as a depressed father in Charlotte Wells' acclaimed indie Aftersun, after being thrust into the critical and BAFTA spotlight. Deserved.
The nominees are listed below in order of probability of winning.
Colin Farrell ("The Banshees of Inisherin")
Austin Butler ("Elvis")
Brendan Fraser (The Whale)
Bill Nighy ("Live")
Paul Mescal ("Aftersun")

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Ben Roethlisberger was far from perfect until the fourth quarter, and that was all that mattered for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Steelers (7-2-1) won their sixth straight and likely ended any playoff hopes for the Jaguars, who eliminated Pittsburgh in the divisional round last year.
The Jaguars (3-7) dropped their sixth in a row in a game they controlled until the final five minutes.
Pittsburgh kicked off and the Jaguars went three-and-out, and then Roethlisberger led a 68-yard drive. He hit JuJu Smith-Schuster on the left sideline for a 35-yard gain to the 27 that at least got the Steelers in field goal position.
James Conner, throttled in the running game, dropped a sure touchdown when he got behind linebacker Telvin Smith Sr., turning his eyes to goal line as the ball bounced off his hands. No matter. Roethlisberger hit Brown over the middle to the 2, and after a pair of penalties, Roethlisberger rolled to his right and surged across the line on a 1-yard score that was upheld on review.
The Jaguars held the ball nearly twice as long, with 13 rushing plays on a 15-play drive early in the game. But all they managed in the first half were three field goals from Josh Lambo. It was the first time in 33 games the Steelers had been blanked in the first half.
Blake Bortles was largely ineffective, throwing for just 104 yards and getting back six times. His biggest gains were to Fournette out of the backfield, and the Steelers stopped Jacksonville cold in the fourth quarter to get enough chances to win.
Pittsburgh came into the game tied for the league lead with 31 sacks and got to Bortles six times. Javon Hargrave and T.J. Watt each had two.
Watt now has 17 career sacks, the most by a Steelers player in his first two seasons since Keith Willis, who had 15 in 1982 and 1983.


The very first stages of transformation, the transformation of the Mind of Ignorance into a Mind of Light, are now being described in the passages that follow. This initial step leads us to a freedom from Ignorance.
Aswapati's tapasya has led him to the point where he begins to witness the transition from a limited mental consciousness to a vaster and freer spiritual and supramental consciousness.
Aswapati's body and mind, his human nature now becomes a conscious and willing instrument in the hands of the Divine. The Divine then takes up our mind and life and begins to mould them in a diviner image, – our body and mind becomes a conscious and willing servitor of the Divine.
One of the first effects of the transformation is that we become aware of the Divine Presence in our depths, whose mighty Hand begins to reshape us releasing our godlike elements in nature. This is the conversion of the Asuric elements in our nature. Our nature is like the raw material that is taken up and refined and purified to become stronger and suppler for the Divine Work.
This world is a workshop of the Divine where He tunes our nature to the rhythms of the Spirits.
The greatest of all miracles is for the human in us to be shaped in the divine image. This is slowly being prepared in the inner being of man even as a chick is being prepared inside an egg. For a long time nothing much is visible on the surface and then suddenly the moment comes when the chick comes out of the egg. Even so the inner change precipitates itself in the outer being.
Slowly the divine elements hidden within us awake and begin to exercise influence and control over our earth nature, which is right now under the spell of Darkness and Unconsciousness. This is the marriage of Earth and Heaven pictured in mystic stories and myths.
A seer is someone who can penetrate behind appearance and "see" the Truth hidden in the play of time. When our minds are transformed by the New Light, then it is able to see by an inner intuition and revelation what our mortal mind burdened with ignorance cannot see and know.
The lid that separates the limited finite mind in Ignorance from the higher and vaster regions of Light and Truth is removed by the action of the Higher Consciousness.
Thus far we see how the ignorant human mind gets transformed into the mind of a seer. It changes its way of functioning and methods of knowledge since a deeper, intuitive and revelatory vision begins to grow in the individual.
